Michael Keith Moore, a convict already serving 3 life sentences, has been charged with the murder. It now appears that Moore is going back on what appeared to be a deal with the DA to plead guilty. The Cooke’s do not deserve this. They deserve justice.

I had the opportunity and pleasure to meet Robert Cooke, Rachel’s dad, in Aruba while searching for Natalee Holloway. We were actually roommates for most of my 2 week stay there searching in the landfill and all over the island. Like many volunteer of Texas EquuSearch, their lives have been upturned by the loss of a loved one. Robert and I stayed up rather late one night discussing his missing daughter’s case and all that they had been through. The names change, but the parents stories are so similar. We wish Robert and his wife and their family all the best and hope that they finally get “Justice for Rachel”.

Waterboy:

Does the man on the beach with the can on the rock look
like the Gardner? I have never seen him. It took a
while for your comment to post and I was addressing
The site where Richard was earlier this morning and asked
him about the Gardner as well. Who is this Gardner? I
have a really hard time understanding initials.

Patti,

I’m not sure who the man on the beach is. Can you provide a link to this picture? I’ve never seen a picture of the “Gardner”. The man they call the Gardner is, I believe, the24 year old that testified (or at least gave a statement) to the fact that he saw Joran, and Deepak parked by the pond (close to the white bag area) at 2:30 or so on the morning of May 31.

Clue me in on “white boy” One of the last 3 people to be seen with Natalee alive is a “white boy” by the name of Joran. He is also affectionately known by most monkeys as an A.H. Sorry for the initials, but it will not be printed if I write it.

SM:Ã‚ Wondered what you meant.Ã‚ I deleted your first comment so there wouldn’t be any confusion (klaasend)

I missed something. Was Rachael murdered in Aruba? Or was her Dad just one of the volunteers searching for Natalee? I haven’t seen or read anything about this and I check here almost every day. Someone, please give me a brief update. TIA

SM:Ã‚ Her father volunteered and came with TES to help search for Natalee (klaasend)

To:
Joran VDS, Deepak and Satish Kalpoe, Guido Wever, Keon Gottenbos, Geoffrey VC and Michael Dumpig.
We all have a good idea of what all of you did to Natalee.
We have a good idea where it happened.
We have a good idea of a motive.
We just do not know what happened once Joran’s father and the other slugs got involved.
The fact that Natalee or her body have not been found leads one to believe they rushed to get rid of a lifeless Natalee regardless if it was an accidental or premeditated death.
I have been a proponent for the crypts at St Ana or the Gold Mines in Serio Crystal.
Although Natalee may have been placed in a crypt temporarily this is my conclusion.
“What you seek is not hidden”. Means she is not at sea, in the mines or on PVDS’s property nor anywhere else.
If what you seek is not hidden and you still can’t find what you are looking for; in my opinion the body would have had to be transformed into something not recognizable as a body.
My conclusion is CREMATION. She could be in plain sight, but would not be found if transformed into ash.
There are very close ties among Paulus, Jan Van der Stratton, Dennis Jacobs and Karle Wever the Funeral Director and Williem Von Cromvorit. If we could find this link, it should blow the lid off this faÃƒ §ade.

I still believe that Natalee Holloway was sold by the boys, and taken in a small boat to a larger boat in the harbor. The boys came back, and made the call to Van Dersloot’s daddy (who is dead now), and daddy cleaned everything up and they made money selling her. And as is said: If you do not find her within 96 hours, you never ever will.

When people disappear, especially young healthy people, it scares me to think of the human parts trade that is hidden in our society.

Sad, just absolutely sad that any family should have to experience such sadness and loss.
